Student support

We aim to provide an accessible, supportive learning environment for all our students.

Our small, friendly Student Support team provide support, advice and pastoral care to students to help them reach their full potential.

Support and advice is offered on a confidential and impartial basis on a wide variety of issues which may be directly or indirectly affecting their studies, learning support, disability support, help with budgeting and finance, bereavement and personal and childcare issues.
